My wounds...... a lost love
Back ...
Loves embrace, known but now discarded,
embraced my soul , my spirits soared.

Clytie was a water-nymph in love with  Appollo.  He rejected her love and spurned her. Each day she pined for him, sitting on the ground with her arms outstretched to the sky.  When the sun would rise, she would gaze upon him, and as he moved across the sky, her eyes would follow and see nothing else.  Finally after nine days, with only the dew and her own tears for sustenance, she sprouted roots and her face became a sunflower , forever to follow the sun across the sky.

The heart that has truely loved, never forgets,
But as truely loves on to the close;
As the sunflower turns on her god when he sets
The same look that she turned when he rose.

'
Clytie'
by Frederic Lord Leighton
I had, what I believed, was the love of my life, my soulmate.  Shared thoughts, feelings and plans for the future.  Then one day,   March 12th, 1999 to be exact,  my life, my heart and my future was torn apart.

I am still trying to work out the reasons
why .......he never said . ...... because I was never told I can only guess, what , why.   Am I now so changed ? 

If I knew the true reasons , would this mean the hurt would be any less ?
